ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to compare three methods of estimating the optimal plot size to evaluate the fresh matter in black oat (Avena strigosa Schreb), common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) and forage turnip (Raphanus sativus L.) intercropping. Six uniformity trials with black oat, common vetch and forage turnip intercropping were carried out. Three trials were evaluated at 84 days after sowing and the other three trials at 119 days after sowing. The fresh matter was evaluated in 216 basic experimental units (36 per trial) of 1 m × 1 m. The optimal plot size was determined using the methods of modified maximum curvature, linear response and plateau model and quadratic response and plateau model. The optimal plot size differs between the methods and decreases in the following order: quadratic response and plateau model (15.13 m2), linear response and plateau model (8.24 m2) and modified maximum curvature (5.62 m2). The optimal plot size for assessing the fresh matter of black oat, common vetch and forage turnip, grown in intercropping, is 15.13 m2. This size can be used as a reference for future experiments.
